I grew up on the Central Coast of CA. KSLY radio. SLO. I won this album on a radio station giveaway. Played it on a hifi my dad built from a kit. At least 500 times. All the albums. Aerosmith. Styx. Elton and Billy. Doobie Brothers and Steve Miller. Purchased from paper route money. My brother, almost nobody knows that AMERICA.
My dad was born in Oakland in 36. He says his dad was stationed there for a spell with the Coast and Geodedic Survey (now NOAA). Before the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges were opened in 36, they had to take a ferry to get to SF.
so taking a break from what is going on: I did hear that Sly of Sly and Family Stone died.. I saw them in concert many years ago and Brian Wilson of the Beach boys..WOW is all I can say. RIP..

RIP SLY.. I may do BLOG ON BEACH BOYS too.. those were the days my friend!
Great Frampton links---as I'm listening, am watching our vaxxed to the max neighbor barely able to walk his dog going by on the sidewalk. He says after many tests, doctors are baffled, saying maybe an autoimmune disease? Yes, Something's Happening/has happened.......

think i will take listen.
Great memories! 👍👏💙
Me too!
I’m a 3rd generation San Franciscan (when it was awesome). My grandmother took me downtown to buy that record. I still have it at 61!
And I won’t step a foot in that Soddom and Gemorrah now.
I was born across the bay. Richmond Ca. Or maybe San Pablo Ca. Brookside hospital is gone now.

Probably a pretty place in 36. Not safe there today. They do have a lot of bridges in that area.
Yeah crazy SF. My mom was a hippy in the late 60s early 70s. I was a hippy kid in a commune.
Do you have any pictures?
Yeah, Ive got some. Need to dig them up.
😂👏
sad... I was there before it went down the tubes. I was BEAUTIFUL.

I was a big Sly and family fan when I was a kid. Loved Sly's performance at Woodstock.

For sure. Thanks for sharing that.
Those that remember this are rich beyond words. We have so much more than we realize. Thank you, Mike.
I’ve seen Frampton four times! The last time was at Ironstone Winery in Murphys California 🥳🍷
I have so many memories from his music…bittersweet.
